During an appearance with his wife Barbara on Fox News last night,
George Bush senior slammed Internet bloggers for creating an adversarial
and ugly climate, echoing the rhetoric of fellow Neo-Cons and the White
House itself in trashing the reputation of the world wide web.

HOST: "Why do you think it’s gotten so adversarial? Tonight
is literacy. Everybody comes in from all different sides and wants to
help. It seems like oftentimes in Washington, you know, on something
we all want to work towards it’s not necessarily so civilized.
It’s not so pleasant."

H.W. BUSH: "It’s true but that’s not new really. I
mean, you go back in history and you’ll find that there was always
adversarial politics. There was always gut fighting. And it’s
probably a little worse now given the electronic media and the bloggers
and all these kinds of things."

Establishment kingpins and their cheerleaders have increased their
level of vitriolic rhetoric against the Internet in recent months, as
legislation in both the U.S. and Europe to regulate, stifle and license
the Internet moves forward.

In the Fox News interview, Bush senior also reveals that his son the
current President refuses to use e mail for fear that the communication
would get subpoenaed and the e mails would be used to prove “that
you were telling the truth and all this stuff.”
